== Biography ==
+
In 2008 the UK-based [[Avon]] imprint of [[HarperCollins]] released ''[[Silk - Penny Jordan|Silk]]'', the first part of a trilogy featuring a Cheshire family and spanning the years from 1929 to 2002. Almost 70 million copies of her novels have been sold worldwide.
'''Penelope Jones''' born at about seven pounds, was the first child of Anthony Winn Jones, who died two years ago aged 85, and his wife, Margaret Louise Groves Jones, 86, a Scot. She has a brother, Anthony, and a sister, Prudence "Pru". Her story-telling career began at the age of eight when she began telling original bedtime stories to her younger sister.
 
  
In her early days, Penelope spent fourteen years working as a shorthand typist in Manchester. Penelope Jones married with Steve '''Halsall''', an accountant, who died from oral cancer. They didn't have children.
+
Penny Jordan was born on November 24, 1946. She passed away on December 31, 2011.

By her early twenties, Penelope was writing for herself, but she entered a competition run by the Romantic Novelists' Association. Although she didn't win, an agent, who was looking for a new-style Georgette Heyer to be called Caroline Courtnay, contacted the RNA.

Her writing career began in earnest when she was 30, and she has since written over 170 category romances for Harlequin, as well as full-length contemporary novels. To date, She has authored 140 titles for the Harlequin [[Presents]] imprint. She has recently branched out into historical novels as [[Annie Groves]]. Penelope gains much of her inspiration from human interest stories in the news as well as her own family history. She adapted a story told by her grandmother (Elsie Jones) in Ellie Pride.

Penny Jordan is a pen name of Penelope Jones Halsall. She started to use that name in 1981 when Mills & Boon accepted her first book, Falcon's Prey. She has since written over 170 category romances for Mills & Boon.

Penny Jordan's first contemporary romance, Love's Choices, was published by Mills & Boon in 1984. Later she wrote for the Worldwide and Mira imprint.

In 2008 the UK-based Avon imprint of HarperCollins released Silk, the first part of a trilogy featuring a Cheshire family and spanning the years from 1929 to 2002. Almost 70 million copies of her novels have been sold worldwide.

Penny Jordan was born on November 24, 1946. She passed away on December 31, 2011.
